The system utilizes Fluxion’s Well Plate Microfluidics™ (WPM) to provide high content results from a convenient well-plate format. Precise control over shear flow enables a wide variety of cellular and microbiology applications which call for vascular emulation, mechanical stress, compound/buffer exchange and high content analysis.

BioFlux enables a wide variety of cell-based assays in the fields of immunology, vascular biology, microbiology, cancer research, stem cells, and more. Many of these applications benefit from the ability to create a physiologically-relevant shear flow profile, such as platelet adhesion, cell adhesion, rolling velocity, transmigration and stem cell differentiation. Other applications can benefit from the ability to introduce compounds in a time-resolved and well-controlled manner, such as wound healing, pharmacology and neurite-outgrowth assays.
